That is usually the case in small companies, while in larger companies these roles (designer, tester, programmer) could be a full-time job.

Proper Project Planning and Management makes it easier to fulfill these deadlines 17 Software Phases Hans-Petter Halvorsen Software Phases Requirements Deployment Design Testing Implementation Software Development Process – Requirements & Design • The Requirements is normally given by the Customer • SRS – Software Requirements Specification document Software Requirements & Design Requirements (WHAT): • WHAT the system should do • Describe what the system should do with Words and Figures,etc. • SRS – Software Requirements Specification Software Design (HOW): • HOW it should do it • Examples: GUI Design, UML, ER diagram, CAD, etc. • SDD – Software Design Document Many dont separate SRS and SDD documents, but include everything in a Requirements document. In practice, requirements and design are inseparable. Software Development Process - Design How the Software will work • Technical Design (Platform, Architecture, etc.) • UX Design (User eXperience, GUI/HMI) 22 Software Development Process Requirements Plan what you are going to do Design Implementation before you actually do it • Make sure to have the Design ready before you start the Implementation (Coding) • Flow Charts, UML, Database Modelling, etc. • Create Detailed Requirements • GUI/HMI – Start by designing your GUI on the “paper” 23 Software Development Process - Testing Document Test Planning Tests Perform Tests Results 24 Software Development Process - Testing Always test your application! • Test it yourself • Test it on other computers and environments • Make sure others test your application • Eat Your Own Dog Food 25 Software Development Process - Deployment Software deployment is all of the activities that make a software system available for use. • Make sure the Software is well tested • The Software should be easy to install 26 Software Development Methods/Processes How we approach the different phases in software development (Requirements, Design, Implementation, Testing, Deployment) differ depending on what kind of Software Development method we choose. A short overview of the most used/known methods are given on the next slides.

    DEVSECOPS IN REGULATED INDUSTRIES ACCELERATING SOFTWARE RELIABILITY & COMPLIANCE TABLE OF CONTENTS 03... Executive Summary 04... Introduction 07... Impediments to DevSecOps Adoption 10... Playbook for DevSecOps Adoption 19... Conclusion EXECUTIVE SUMMARY DevOps practices enable rapid product engineering delivery and operations, particularly by agile teams using lean practices. There is an evolution from DevOps to DevSecOps, which is at the intersection of development, operations, and security. Security cannot be added after product development is complete and security testing cannot be done as a once-per-release cycle activity. Shifting security Left implies integration of security at all stages of the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC). Adoption of DevSecOps practices enables faster, more reliable and more secure software. While DevSecOps emerged from Internet and software companies, it can benefit other industries, including regulated and high security environments. This whitepaper covers how incorporating DevSecOps in regulated Industries can accelerate software delivery, reducing the time from code change to production deployment or release while reducing security risks. This whitepaper defines a playbook for DevSecOps goals, addresses challenges, and discusses evolving workflows in DevSecOps, including cloud, agile, application modernization and digital transformation. Bi-directional requirement traceability, document generation and security tests should be part of the CI/CD pipeline. Regulated industries can securely move away

It must deal with constraints concerning both the system and the target machine(s), in particular their distribution, heterogeneity and dynamics, and satisfy requirements from different stakeholders. In the context of mobility and openness, deployment must react to the instability of the network of machines (failures, connections, disconnections, variations in the quality of the resources, etc.).

  • ASSESSING KANBAN FITMENT in the FLUID and FAST-PACED WORLD of SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT - Vikram Abrol, Ketan Shah
    WHITE PAPER ASSESSING KANBAN FITMENT IN THE FLUID AND FAST-PACED WORLD OF SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT - Vikram Abrol, Ketan Shah. Abstract Operating in a business environment governed by speed and agility, IT companies are under constant and immense pressure to reduce time-to-market and enhance product quality. The birth of the Agile approach and models like Scrum owe their existence to this need driving managers to find better solutions. Looking to achieve a faster and more efficient software development cycle (SDC), IT companies have adopted certain methodologies, such as the Lean approach, from the manufacturing industry – another business where speed and efficiency hold the key to profitability. The concept of Kanban also originated in the manufacturing space and has filtered into the IT industry several years ago as an effective approach to manage SDC. The terminology related to Kanban in manufacturing context comes mostly from Toyota Motor Corporation in Japan where the system was invented. The Japanese term Kanban literally means a visual card or a signboard. Hence the Kanban system of work management essentially focuses on visualizing the workflow in order to reduce constraints and minimize the work-in- progress (WIP).

    Radiant info school Project Management Project Management Life Cycle Managing your digital media project is one of the most important and often overlooked aspects of the development process. You will find that effort you put into planning, scheduling, and organizing your project will pay off enormously. Here we'll outline some proven techniques for planning, scheduling, and completing your project. A project has five phases. Here's a brief summary of each: . Initiation Articulate your vision for the project, establish goals, assemble your team, and define expectations and the scope of your project. Develop a Business Case Undertake a Feasibility Study Establish the Project Charter It will help you to define the scope of your project. Writing the Project Charter is typically one of the most challenging steps in the Project Life Cycle, as it defines the parameters within which the project must be delivered. It sets out the project vision, objectives, scope and implementation, thereby giving the team clear boundaries within which the project must be delivered. Appoint the Project Team Set up the Project Office Perform Phase Review Radiant info school Project Management . Planning Refine the scope, identify specific tasks and activities to be completed, and develop a schedule and budget.
